Love this interpretation of the theme. Great use of inverse kinematics as well. I think you should have made the game quicker to beat. I spent about 10 minutes increasing my piles, but nothing happened. Maybe lower the amount of objects needed in the piles to complete? Some sound effects for different actions would be nice as well.

Developer

Yes I agree. I did some last moment tweaking with the item trading and that made the game really slow to progress. Thanks for giving feedback I appreciate it!

This is a very nice game! The art looks awesome and the music absolutely fits the situation! I love that there's a chance to get something totally useless, but that the guy will do something with, such as eating the gum he pulls out. I loved that there was two different endings, and I love the method to get to both. After a while, though, the game got a bit boring with as long as it is without much difference from the start. I also came across a bug where on the second playthrough, to see the other ending, I couldn't see the dog. It was there, but it just wasn't visible.

I really enjoyed this game and I love the interpretation of the theme! Very original and enjoyable!

Developer

Thank you! The dog implementation was a bit janky, thanks for the feedback!

This is pretty impressive for your first game. Some feedback is that the game gets a bit boring after a while. Good job, though!

Great idea with the vending machine, was not sure if I did progress in the game by pickpocketing for minutes but was fun playing. Nice work!

Developer

I noticed the game not being clear about the progress. Thank you! And thanks for leaving feedback!

I love it! No really, the idea of a man getting stuck with his arm in a vending machine killed me!
Please make more games!

Developer

Thanks! And I'll try!
